Chapter Seventy-Eight: Suspicious Terminals
A villa estate in the Fragmented City.
Xu Ran in the garage has been busy for more than three hours.
It was originally a top-level off-road vehicle that was extremely domineering and beautiful, and had a cool style, but now it was dismantled by Xu Ran.
After sorting out all the accessories after the dismantling, Xu Ran found that no matter which of those accessories are the same, their performance is not comparable to those produced in the earth.
He believed that after using these parts to carry out a major change of blood in the Wrangler he bought, the off-road car would definitely surprise Xu Ran in other aspects except for the shell and engine.
According to the list made by Guo Xinyue, Xu Ran began to select what he needed among these parts.
After selecting all the accessories needed for modification, Xu Ran found that there was still a huge amount of leftover, so he took some more and put them all on the pickup truck for later use.
At the same time, the original electronic navigation device on the car, Xu Ran, felt very good, and it was completely able to match the intelligence of the voice assistant on his Bluestar mobile phone, so he also removed it and put it on.
In this way, after Xu Ran picked up the parts that were processed by the high-performance and leading technology required for the car modification of a pickup truck, as for the dismantled Blue Star indigenous vehicle, along with the engine and other large parts that were not easy to take, they were temporarily abandoned by Xu Ran in the garage.
got on the pickup truck, drove the car to the yard, and Xu Ran got out of the car to close the garage door.
It was only after closing the door of the manor garage that Xu Ran suddenly heard the pickup truck turn off.
It feels a little strange, it is said that as long as the pickup truck starts normally, according to its performance, there should be no such problems.
Confused, Xu Ran got into the car.
But when he checked the dashboard, he found that the car was extremely weak when it was powered on, almost gone, and the display on the fuel gauge had also reached the warning value.
What's going on?
Xu Ran was taken aback.
He remembered very well that after he started the car, the heat generated by the exhaustion of fuel would continue to generate electricity during the operation of the engine, and would automatically charge the battery of the car.
But now it's almost running out all of a sudden, which is a bit of an anomaly.
So, Xu Ran ignited again, and the engine started running normally.
Xu Ran didn't rush to start, but observed when the engine was running and the system in the car automatically charged the battery, and there was nothing abnormal in other places in the car.
The only anomaly is a strange device in the on-board system.
The device is a bit like an FM-enabled radio broadcast, with waveforms displayed on the LED screen and an indicator under a knob next to it, which is flashing regularly.
No, there is no communication signal in this fragmented space, let alone any communication transmission signal without wire waves.
But when Xu Ran carefully observed the waveform, it was obviously a wireless wave signal received through the on-board radio.
What the hell is going on, or is there something unusual in the manor that emits radio waves that interfere with the on-board systems in this car?
After thinking of this possibility, Xu Ran couldn't help but be startled, and his breath became short.
Will there be any danger?
However, Xu Ran quickly regained his composure.
After all, for the unknown, it may not necessarily mean danger, maybe there is something different from the earth that Xu Ran has never discovered.
So, Xu Ran didn't rush to leave, but held a kind of vigilance, paying attention to the movement of the manor villa while keeping the engine running, observing the special device that could accept no wire signals, and wondering what it was for.
"Zizizi!"
At this time, the waveform began to become a little more frequent, and a noise came from the device that seemed to have received some signal.
At the same time, Xu Ran found that the power on the car was quickly lost after replenishing the previous part, and the indicator light on the wireless device flashed more and more frequently.
It feels as if something is stealing the car's power by triggering the conversion of the electromagnetic field signal on the car with weak radio waves.
Could it be that this device is a magnetic field signal terminal that can receive or send a message to the car for wireless charging?
Xu Ran was 80% sure in his heart, and it was really possible that this was a terminal.
Since this is a terminal, according to the signal waveform displayed on the LED, the approximate influence range can be judged through calculation, which will not exceed 50 meters.
In other words, the thing that affected this wireless terminal to remotely steal the power of the car is in this villa manor.
With such a guess, Xu Ran mustered up the courage to get out of the car.
Without letting the car turn off, Xu Ran got out of the car and took a wrench, stared around vigilantly, and then slowly explored the three buildings within fifty meters.
The three buildings are a garage, a warehouse for miscellaneous items, and a wing for the estate's hired workers.
Needless to say, Xu Ran has been staying in the garage, and he has also turned over the garage, and there has been no abnormal phenomenon, so there is no need to search.
All that's left is the utility warehouse and the wing.
The distance between the side building and the garage was a little farther away, so Xu Ran went to the farthest side building to search first.
Xu Ran didn't rush into the room, but looked around the building, carefully listening to whether there was any abnormal noise or any light coming out.
But there was nothing to gain, there was no sound in the silence there, so Xu Ran planned to go in and have a look.
Syllable!
But at this moment, when Xu Ran was about to step into the building, he suddenly heard a crisp sound coming from the miscellaneous warehouse area not far away.
After stopping, Xu Ran retreated, and quickly went straight to the building facility of the warehouse where all kinds of distractions were stored.
The crunch he had heard before, though relatively light, was like the sound of some kind of empty bottle being knocked to the ground, definitely something that had moved.
Xu Ran walked quickly to the utility room, became more vigilant, and after holding the wrench tightly, he looked through the window towards the utility warehouse.
This is indeed a warehouse for storing miscellaneous items, and there is a lot of space in it, and it stores all kinds of things that are used for the maintenance of the estate, such as vacuum cleaners, lawn mowers and other tools, as well as some loading machines, tour cars, farm and garden tools for pruning flowers and trees, planting tools, and even a few kennels...... Wait a minute.
After all, it is a rich man's house, and there are many kinds of sundries in it, but they are also placed in a very neat and orderly manner, and there has been no chaos.
It's just that it is clear at a glance inside, and there is nothing abnormal, Xu Ran seems a little puzzled.
However, when Xu Ran's eyes fell on the door of the innermost compartment of the utility warehouse, he spotted the anomaly through a faint blue flicker of light light emitted from the crack in the door.
